The lounge / chill-series Hotel Costes goes into Round 15. Compiled was it again by Stéphane Pompougnac, a French House DJ, musician, composer and producer. Such lounge or chill compilations are musically interesting, whenever they offer more than just use music, so background tooting for elevators or supermarkets. Lit From this perspective, the following picture provides: 1. Slack Wax - Close To My Fire: Somewhere between the lascivious Soul by Amy Winehouse and the retro-soul of Sharon Jones itself levels off that number. Sympathetic. 2. Intergalactic Lovers - Fade Away: Is Lena Meier Ruth-Land under an assumed name? If not, here means someone having to jump on the successful run. Schlappe melody, no autonomy. Superfluous. 3. Second Date - Young, Beautiful Etc .: retorts dance track with lots of rum to the rhythm. Except for a change of pace is nothing going on with the play. Tiring. 4. DJ Cam feat. Chris James - Swim (Blackjoy version): In the original it's a ballad Electronica (nice video on YouTube). For the singing makes Chris James from the band STATELESS. The French DJ Cam supplied this version with a Brazilectro beat and increases the speed. Clever converted, a new atmosphere is created. 5. Osunlade - Idiosyncazy: Kraftwerk leave as greet influence. Supercooled monotonous Electro-Beat with vocoder voice. Unoriginal. 6. Lanoo - Beautiful Trash feat. Megan Washington: trivial teenage Girl Pop. 7. Kid Loco - The Passenger: cover version of Iggy Pop piece. In this listless interpretation one wishes to induce the original. Embarrassing. 8. Brigitte Fontaine & Grace Jones - La Caravane: Always nice again, what to hear from the style icon Grace Jones. Again, they are not disappointed and missed the Duke Ellington classic caravan together with the French singer, actress and writer Brigitte Fontaine own Francophile touch. Tastefully. 9. Zahed Sultan - I Want Her But I Don`t Want Her: Orient meets Trance Disco. Getting used to. 10. Tom Fire feat. Matthew MC Anuff - Brainwash: A fluffy pop-reggae with piano accompaniment. Goes well in the ear. Is so light that it floats in milk. Pleasant. 11. Jürgen Paape - As far as never before: A title, a typical example of unemotional Muzak, that use music to subliminal represents. Boring. 12. Stéphane Pompougnac - One By One: The Kompilant must itself also be involved. No Better Than Title 11th 13. Maceo Plex - Gravy Train (Nicolas Jaar Remix): annoying pseudo-World-Music-Trance-tooting. 14. Soulstice - Lost in the City: Here the Groove works thanks to a varied backing and bearing capacity concept. Alive. 15 Deluxe - Mister Chicken: Average R & B rap piece. Good singing, even melody. Mediocrity. 16. Scratch Massive - Paris feat. Daniel Agust: If not properly from the curd that number. It lacks the brilliant hook. Untalented. 17. DJ Click feat. Valentina Casula - Guadalquivir: plus is the loose Brazilian flair here. Negatives: a bit too playful the whole. Less is more. 18. Variety Lab - I Can`t Help Thinking About You: Easy Listening old Burt Bacharach school. Since we also forgive the lulling character of the piece.
Unfortunately, the compilation due to fluctuating quality and lack of flow can not be heard in one go, but you will find one or another positive surprise.
